Law firms have stringent requirements when it comes to client confidentiality and data security. Yet, it is becoming increasingly difficult to discern how to meet those requirements. Come and learn about the latest trends and expectations in the industry from Paul Hager, CEO and Senior Engineer at Information Technology Professionals (ITP). Paul will present real-world case studies of how law firms are successfully meeting these challenges and how you can be confident with your network security and compliance. You will learn about the standards being applied to law firms today and also the trends that suggest how those standards will change in the future. Whether it's increased pressure from compliance standards like PCI or a need to satisfy insurance requirements, you will take away the knowledge you need to handle any of your compliance concerns. Paul will also provide examples of policies and practices for quality IT security today. We look forward to another informative and practical session.
